Hi friends! This week has been a whirlwind!! BUT … I am so happy to be in Dallas. I love this city and the people that I am close with in it! The Blog Workshop that I hosted with Katey McFarlan, from Chronicles of Frivolity, and Ashley Robertson, of The Teacher Diva on Wednesday night went off without a hitch! We had SUCH a great time getting to know the ladies that joined us as well as sharing what we’ve learned throughout our blogging journey. We definitely want to host more of these types of events, and know that it’s better to keep them small. We will keep y’all posted on when and where the next one will be!

I wore this sweatshirt to a Monday morning meeting a few weeks ago, posted it on Instagram and y’all went banana’s. It’s been so chilly this week … I thought I would share the outfit on the blog and highlight my love for Spring sweatshirts. I can’t pretend that more than half the country is not feeling quite Spring like, and I know lately I’ve been posting a lot of warm weather outfits. This sweatshirt isn’t available in many sizes [I’m sorry!] but I have rounded up some others [and a few cute cardigans!] that I either own or would deem ‘Alyson Haley’ approved:

Throwing on a cozy sweatshirt with jeans or shorts is one of my favorite feelings and outfits to sport.  Yesterday, I wore THIS fun sweatshirt and shorts combination. I think a lot of people see sweatshirts as something to throw on when they’re feeling lazy about their personal appearance. But, y’all … they’re SO cute when you just put a little bit more effort into your look. Throw on minimal makeup, a cute pair of form fitting jeans or shorts, and a fun bangle or pair of earrings and you will seriously turn some head’s and make people question the way they wear their sweatshirts. Let’s show other ladies that there’s a way to wear sweatshirts without looking sloppy!

What do y’all have planned for the weekend?

I’ll be hanging in Dallas this weekend for the rewardStyle conference. They put it on every year for publishers to learn about what’s new in the blogging industry and connect with other bloggers and brands. I’m looking forward to learning new things about how I can make this little creative space better for you guys! Then Sunday night, I am off on another adventure …. and I cannot wait! Be sure to follow me on Snapchat to get my behind the scenes on where that is! 😉 My Snapchat username is the same as my Instagram!

Have a great Friday, lovelies! Thanks for stopping by! xo.
